Angelic Beings

Quite a while ago, I wrote a piece of prose called “The
Pathway Home.” It was later published in the anthology, “Age Ain’t Nothing but
a Number,” edited by Carleen Brice. In “The Pathway Home” I write about many
things, (my garden, my relationship with my son and planning dinner). Another
aspect of this story is an encounter with a being I believed to be an angel.

You know from coming to this blog, that I believe in many
different spirits, gods/goddesses, creatures, orisha, lwa, sprites and more.
Just the past week I’ve written about dragons and sirens as well as the
goddesses. Today I am feeling gratitude for angelic beings.

The back story is, that 2 days ago I wrote a blog post,
called “Writer’s Rant” and posted it over at the website for women writers
called She Writes. I have since that time deleted the post because it was
written in anger, in a time I was feeling low and I don’t want that kind of
energy coming out into the world from me. In it though, I was in a rage over
being mistreated as a freelance writer. I had put 2 solid days into creating a
writing sample, only to find out, quite callously mind you, that they had
chosen someone else. This happens to freelancers more times than I’d like to
count, especially this one.

You never know though, who is reading your blog posts and
what they are thinking. Blog posts come from within and you put them out into
the world—a lot of times, that is that. Anyway, someone, and she knows who she
is, has been following my posts. In fact, she has told me she looks forward to
them. I didn’t know that previously. She is in the position to hire freelancers
and the two of us have entered promising discussions about my working for her
as an independent contractor and writer.

If you told me that would be the result of my rant I would
have laughed, but it did. Yesterday, I renewed my interest in angels. I also
began to think about angels that walk this earth and look out for us. My newest
work is about spirit possession and it also goes into the importance of voice.
Those two aspects came together after that experience and led me to do more
writing on my new novel. Prior to that, I had a writer’s block for over a week.

I believe the spirit of angels can possess certain people—people
that seem human enough otherwise. I also see this next year as one in which I
will develop my voice like my characters, quite possibly with the help of angel
guardians and the ascended masters that surround me.

Happy to announce that my 6th book has been published by a small publishing house in England called Green Magic Publishing! You can find it here.

It is a very unique book, that has been a long time coming - 14 years actually! When I began writing it my adult children were still living at home and my youngest, who is about to graduate from high school, was little more than a toddler. Time flies but book writing seems to take forever!

The release of, Earth Mama's Spiritual Guide to Weight Loss feels like a birth. It has had growing pains, changes and the labor of bringing it into this world - a labor of love.

I'm offering a series of workshops at Life Force Arts Center in Chicago, to kick off the book and get you into its unique type of hands-on healing and transformation work. This first one is inspired by Welsh Goddess Cerrwiden. Following is a description and how you can sign up at Life Force Arts Center.

I'm all in, once again. This is my third year of participating in the Blogging from A to Z Challenge. This will be an intense spurt of reading and writing for me, as I'm also editing one book and writing another. I will do my best to stay in, and keep up!

For the month of April (2017) I will be blogging and visiting other blogs. This is a fun and meaningful practice that I've taken on to increase conversations with other readers and bloggers. I am always happy to see newcomers and, whether you comment or not, you are welcome.

A Month of African ProverbsMy 2017 theme is drawn from my soon-to-be released book "Earth Mama's Spiritual Guide to Weight Loss." I have a section of my book that contains African Proverbs. I will be spending time on each of those proverbs, exploring their meaning and inspiration regarding losing weight or otherwise transforming yourself.

Here is the definition of the word proverb: (from Latin: proverbium) is a simple and concrete saying…
